Welcome to the National Nutrition and Food Technology Research Institute (NNFTRI).
For decades, our institute has been built on a rich tradition of practical, experience-based education. We are proud to continue this legacy as Iran's leading academic and research organization dedicated to advancing food and nutrition sciences, promoting public health, and strengthening national food and nutrition security.
NNFTRI operates at the vital intersection of scientific discovery, policy impact, and professional education. As a premier national center, we generate the robust evidence that informs government policy while training the high-caliber professionals—in both Food Science and Technology and Nutrition Sciences—who lead and innovate across every sector of the national food and nutrition system. Through our undergraduate, graduate, and professional development programs, we empower experts who turn knowledge into tangible solutions.
Whether you are a prospective student, a researcher, or a professional seeking to make a difference, NNFTRI offers a dynamic community and a platform for growth. I invite you to explore our programs and opportunities detailed on this website and to contact us directly. Let us help you find your path to contribute to a healthier, more food-secure future.
To our current students, esteemed alumni, and future collaborators: we look forward to welcoming you into our community of lifelong learners and achievers. Together, we can build on our proud tradition and shape the next chapter of impact.
